Did you know that a "woman with a mind is fit for any task?" We think it's obvious now, but when Christine de Pizan wrote, in the late 15th century, this was a pretty revolutionary thought. Christine de Pizan, one of the first women who made a living with her writing, was famous at the court of Margaret of Austria where Anne Boleyn spent her formative years, and would have had a strong influence on the young Anne.

Celebrate a kickass woman writer by toting your own books or groceries in this bag, and show off your literary flair! What a fantastic conversational starter!
